The very scenario that Jimmer fanboys don't want to hear. I've seen some in here try to make the argument that Utah could actually go Knight at 3 and still pick Jimmer if he's there at 12. I don't think there's any way in hell Utah drafts 2 PG's in the lottery.
 
If this is true, then there goes all of our leverage for any Kanter draft and trade. As for Jimmer(not a fanboy), he may not be there at 12 anyway. A few mocks have the Kings taking him at 7.
 
No, Kings are going to take Kawhi Leonard over Jimmer if he is available, also Jazz will most likely take Jimmer or Chris Singleton at #12 and whichever one of the two they don't take the Suns will take at #13.

This is all according to Ryan Feldman's "sources"...

If the Jazz go for a stiff like Donatas Montiejunas at #12, it will be a horrible mistake.

So take Jan Vesley or Enes Kanter at #3, then Jimmer Fredette or Reggie Jackson at #12. That would be the best draft for the Jazz.

Have you had a post yet that isn't on Jackson's and Vesely's junk? There are a few threads left you haven't posted your love for those two. Better get on it.
 
I would rather roll the dice and pick up Washington's pick #1 protected next year and this years#6 for the rights to Kanter for them who they love. If Knight is gone to Toronto, thats fine. Draft Biyombo who many scouts say could (along w Irving) become the only star out of this draft.

Then take Jimmer at #12.

I want the chance to get a top 3 pick next year more than I want Knight who may or may not be better than Jimmer at the PG. And I am not a Jimmer fan really.

My favorite player in this draft is Biyombo because he has the highest upside to provide us with what we have always needed and that is defense.

I would be okay with taking anyone with Biyombo... Give me Burks, Singleton, Hamilton, Jimmer, Kemba, Kawhi, Klay Thompson etc.

I frankly don't see the Jazz drafting him early, but I hope like nothing else that he is available at #12, and if he is we need to draft him... even if we take Kanter.

Givony is on Biyombo's junk the most. Ford is not very fond of him. A lot of scouts and GM's aren't necessarily as high on him after his last workout session. If we draft Biyombo, everyone has to know that he will do next to nothing offensively. His value is on the defensive end.
 
Knight and Singleton are good fits for the Jazz, but they may not end up being the best players the Jazz could have taken. Knight is limited as an athlete and isn't much of a defender, while Singleton is offensively-challenged.

I doubt the Wizards would trade #6 and unrestricted '12 pick for #3. I'd only trade with Washington if they accepted those terms. I doubt the Jazz would take less for that pick.
 
It does explain why the jazz are trying to shop Devin harris out there. Might be going after both knight and Jimmer. Either way the jazz are going to have a new pg somewhere next year. Still not sure why everyone is sold on the big Enes. Also kind of funny when i was also reading a twitter on the cavs taking Dwill, Wolves taking Enes and Jazz taking Irving. Too many things can happen and the Jazz are too tight lip to let out what they are doing.

And you want VESELY? That's rich.

Exactly. I think there are a ton of high risk/high reward players. I don't think Knight or Singleton are as high risk/high reward. Their ceilings might in some cases be a little lower in comparison to a few guys. That's more of an issue with Singleton really.

Funny, I keep seeing the names Knight, Jimmer, Valanciunas, Biyombo, Kanter, Walker and Singleton over and over.

Watch Vesely who's a fantastic 6'11" athlete and Jackson who's a highly skilled 6'4" PG and elite physical talent end up better than most of those guys.

It makes no sense for them just to give the starting job to Knight. Maybe they will. But I guess we'll see.
